Alavés, the La Liga club, has shown interest in Andrés García, the right-back of Aston Villa. According to Superdeporte, Unai Emery is willing to approve a loan, and Lyon, fourth in Ligue 1, has made a firm offer. Villa paid around eight million euros in January 2025, and Valencia has not ruled out the deal. Valencia's delegation, with Corberán's approval, has pursued that loan, attracted by the former Levante defender's forward threat. He was one of their preferred options by mid-April. More experienced alternatives have since been added. Thomas Meunier stands out in that bracket. Valencia has contacted the 34-year-old Belgium international, who will play at the 2026 World Cup and has said he will not rush his choice. His Lille contract ends on 30 June, he played 27 matches last season and the French club, also in the Champions League, remains an option. Meanwhile, Alavés and Lyon, coached by Quique Sánchez Flores, have registered interest in García. Elche are also monitoring, despite completing a permanent deal worth four and a half million euros for Buba Sangaré, a long-standing Valencia target. The 23-year-old Valencian full-back has three years left on his Villa contract. Any move would need to offer the chance to compete and regain the games and minutes that led to the Premier League and a Spain under-21 call-up.
